Miss Maud Garnes of Muscatine, Miss Vera Groxen of Atalissa and Clyde Slater of Moscow were drowned at Resley’s lake, near Muscatine. A party of five were in a gasoline launch, which sank suddenly in ten feet of water, being overloaded. Two of the party, Roy Hain and Richard Waters, were saved. Miss Garnes was shortly to have been married to Waters. The bodies were recovered. All are from prominent Muscatine families.
